How to grow blue fescue

When to plant blue fescue

Blue fescue is a clumping, semi-evergreen ornamental grass grown for its blue-green foliage and established by division or seed. Set out new plants or divisions in spring as growth resumes; NC State notes the clumps tend to die out in the center and need dividing and replanting every two to three years, and that the plant dies out in heavy, poorly drained soil.

Blue Fescue is timed by season rather than your frost dates, so the planting calendar does not generate ZIP-specific dates for it. Check the cited sources below to fine-tune for your area.
